Steps to Install the Template

1. Sign in to Railway

   • Go to Railway and log in to your account.

2. Create a New Project

   • Click on "New Project" and select "Start From Template".

3. Search for the Template

   • Find the template for MariaDB and Adminer. If you don't see it, you can create a custom setup with the necessary services.

4. Configure Environment Variables

   • Once the project is set up, navigate to the "Environment Variables" section.

   • Add the following variables to configure MariaDB:

     Variable Name	Description
     MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD	The root password for MariaDB.
     MYSQL_DATABASE	The default database name.
     MYSQL_USER	The database user.
     MYSQL_PASSWORD	The password for the database user.

   • Replace the placeholders with your desired values:

     MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=
     MYSQL_DATABASE=
     MYSQL_USER=
     MYSQL_PASSWORD=
     

5. Deploy the Template

   • After setting up the environment variables, click "Deploy" to start the project.
   • Railway will provision MariaDB and Adminer as part of your project.

6. Access Adminer

   • Once the deployment is complete, locate the Adminer service URL from your Railway dashboard.
   • Open the Adminer URL in your browser and use the credentials you set up in the environment variables to log in.

Tips

• Use a strong password for MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD and MYSQL_PASSWORD to enhance security.
• Regularly back up your MariaDB database to prevent data loss.
• Customize additional Railway configurations if needed (e.g., project domains or resources).
